My gripe for today is me. Been so busy at work trying to multi-task that I've missed a couple of clearly stated answers to my problems in the manuals.
And also developers who have no idea of the impact a full systems test 'just for fun' has. |

Just dumped BT broadband. Prices have steadily risen since I retired and they now expect £50 a month for unlimited fibre. Also they charge an additional £5 a month for caller-id.
I've signed up with Plusnet at £24 a month. Caller-id is£0.99 a month. I've had to drop down a speed from 52mbs to 38 but I can live with that. I also got £70 back from Topcashback.

![]() not sure what his name was, they made it so small in the caption, that I can only presume they didn't want it to be know who it was because he was so crap!

Why is Jodie Kidd in there ? fulfilling a quota, another tick in the equality box ? She is a nice enough person but hardly qualified to talk about TT.

I've been had at least 5 fords with heated screens and never had one crack, even my current transit has a heated screen and I've done 30k miles since January 2016 and it's not even got a chip on it

BT say I can now get fibre broadband. I currently have a 350/20Mb service from Virgin.
What do BT offer me, If I buy their superfast 2 with an average download to others of 67Mb :- 6Mb. Are these people for real? When are they going to offer an affordable FTTP option for those who want a decent broadband service.

Autoglass update.
The useless idiots have had their delivery in stock it turns out for the last five days. Nobody called me to set a new appointment. Yet again I have had to call them. FIVE DAYS WASTED. Useless feckers!!!! And of course I now have to wait another eight days until they can come and fit it...
